Expect
to see
a
much different website if you log in at Afternic.com
around this time next week. The popular
aftermarket domain sales venue sent a letter to
its members today, giving them a heads up on the
impending makeover.
The
letter said, "Next week we will
be launching the newly
|
|
redesigned
Afternic.com, saturated with novel features
and upgrades to make selling your domains
even easier than before. The new Afternic is a
clean, simplified, improved user experience for
both buyers and sellers."
The
letter went on to provided some specifics,
noting "The Member Center has been upgraded
to include personalized Member Portfolio
Pages to feature domains from your
portfolio, Domain Profile Pages for all
active domains, Parking Management
allowing editing and viewing of all parking
data, and a centralized Offer Area to
allow easy management of offers and price
requests. In addition to these upgrades, the new
Afternic features a simplified escrow process,
and an improved shopping cart experience with
tiered service pricing."
If
you are an Afternic member, you won't have to do
anything to take advantage of the new features.
The letter said, "All your information and
domains will be transferred seamlessly to the
new Afternic, with nothing required of you.
Next week we will be sending out another email
with specific information on what to expect when
you log on to the new site, and more detail on
the new site features."

One other
note today - that being kudos to Raymond
Hackney for profiling nearly two
dozen domain industry women in a
five-part series that concluded today at
Ray's HybridDomainer.com
blog. Back in 2005 we wrote a Cover
Story about the need for more
women in a business that had
everything going for it except
diversity. We were able to feature three
great trail blazing ladies in Donny
Mahony, Marcia Lynn Walker
and Michele Miller, but few
others were in the domain game then.
Thankfully, as Ray's series clearly
illustrates, things have changed
for the better
with dozens of smart,
exceptionally talented women occupying
key positions throughout the industry.
Our field is much stronger and more
professional as a result. |
